I Want to Be the King of Football

On the evening of December 18, in the 16th round of the Premier League, Manchester City played at home against Norwich.

All three newly promoted teams this season have done well.

Norwich are the highest ranked, currently in 10th place, followed by Swansea in 11th, and these two teams are even higher than Everton in 12th. Thirteen are Queens Park Rangers.

Judging from the current trend, these three teams cannot be said to be safe, but the possibility of relegation is still very high.

On the contrary, Bolton, Blackburn, Wigan Athletic and Wolves, which many fans are familiar with, are currently at the bottom.

It can also be seen from this point how fierce the competition in the Premier League is at present.

In addition to Manchester City's 15-game winning streak, the competition for the other three places in the top four is also deadly.

Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool, these six teams are all competing for these three places. Whoever can keep the top four will be able to make a fortune in the Champions League next season.

The reason for this fierce competition is actually related to the distribution of broadcast rights income in the Premier League. After all, 20 teams, including the teams that have been relegated, can gain huge benefits from the increase in broadcast rights income. The purchasing power of Premier League teams is now very strong.

...

That carnival in London did not affect Manchester City's preparations.

In fact, the next day after the carnival, there was basically no news in the media.

This also means that Manchester City has begun to establish initial contact with the media.

It can be said that this is an exchange.

However, Su Dong was issued an internal warning by the coaching staff because as the captain, he did not manage the players well, causing many players to violate the requirements of the head coach Guardiola and revel in the nightclub until almost dawn.

Su Dong willingly accepted this internal warning and gained further hearts from the players in the locker room.

Everyone knew that it was Su Dong who carried the blame for them.

Of course, they wouldn't know that as early as when Su Dong left the nightclub, he had spoken to Guardiola on the phone and supported Guardiola's punishment, because the head coach also needs to maintain his authority to prevent players from crossing the line in the future.

So, the final result was that the players had a good time, but Su Dong was fined.

...

Perhaps it is because of the rare double game in a week. Manchester City's game against Norwich at the Etihad Stadium was a little uncomfortable at the beginning. There were flaws in the back line, and it was almost attacked by Morrison in the fourth minute. Goal.

Although it was a little out of the way, it still caused everyone in Manchester City to break out in a cold sweat.

In the tenth minute, Pepe also made mistakes in defense, and Morrison dribbled the ball into the penalty area to form a single-handed shot. Courtois, who resolutely abandoned the goal and attacked, saved a dangerous situation.

After two consecutive mistakes, Su Dong was completely annoyed, he got angry on the court and reprimanded his teammates.

Manchester City players also realized the problem and quickly cleared up.

The game re-entered the rhythm of Manchester City, firmly controlling the ball, and in the 16th minute, Toni Kroos went straight to the right side of the penalty area, Sanchez dribbled the ball to the bottom line and then passed back in an inverted triangle. Su Dong followed in front of the goal. The push shot hit, opening the scoring for Manchester City.

One to zero!

This goal also completely sounded the horn of Manchester City's attack.

Norwich shrinks and defends, trying to stabilize their defense.

In the 26th minute, Tony Kroos made a long over-the-top pass to the left behind. After Marcelo plugged in at a high speed, the left pass went to the middle. Su Dong followed up and volleyed the goal again.

As a result, the ball landed too close this time, and Su Dong's shot was blocked by the goalkeeper.

Just four minutes later, after stealing the ball in midfield, Busquets sent a through ball to Su Dong's feet.

With his back to the attacking direction, Su Dong faced Busquets' pass,

He swiped the ball directly, passed the football from the crotch of the defender Barnett, turned around and started, the whole person sprinted forward like a cheetah.

In a flash, Su Dong threw away all the defenders, and after catching the ball at the front of the penalty area, he passed the goalkeeper who had attacked halfway, and easily pushed and shot the empty goal, 2-0!

Manchester City's attack is like a broken bamboo.

Two minutes later, it was on the left again. After Marcelo and Di Maria's collision with the wall, the ball was passed to David Silva.

After the Spanish midfielder stopped the ball and adjusted, he directly sent a through ball to the left side of the penalty area behind the defense line.

Marcelo sprinted to the bottom line and passed the ball back to Su Dong in the penalty area.

I saw that Su Dong had another beautiful stop-and-take. The whole process was like flowing water. After getting rid of the centerback Martin who was defending him, facing Barnett who was assisting in the defense, he changed the speed in a small range twice in a row. , Deducted Barnett, volleyed with his right foot, and broke Norwich's goal again, three to zero!

hat trick! ! ! !

Su Dong opened his arms excitedly, like a glider, flying across the Etihad Stadium.

Nearly 50,000 Manchester City fans in the audience were all shouting his name hoarsely.

After scoring consecutive goals, Manchester City did not feel satisfied, but continued to attack.

From 34 minutes to the end of the first half, in just ten minutes, Manchester City kicked a total of seven shots, of which four almost scored, which made Norwich's goal a mess. .

In the second half, after changing sides and fighting again, in the 51st minute, with an assist from Su Dong, Busquets, who rarely scored a goal, broke Norwich's goal with a volley from the top of the penalty area, 4-0!

It can be said that the iron tree is blooming!

Not long after that, Su Dong was replaced by Aguero, because from this game, it was the devil's Christmas schedule, and Guardiola wanted Su Dong to play leisurely.

After taking a four-to-zero lead, Manchester City continued their pursuit.

First Toni Kroos scored Norwich's goal with a direct free-kick, then Aguero and substitute Douglas Costa also scored in the final stages of the game.

In the end, Manchester City beat newly-promoted Norwich 7-0 at their home.

…………

On December 21st, in the seventeenth round of the Premier League, Manchester City played against Stoke City at home.

After beating Norwich in the last round, Guardiola made a big rotation, but Sudong still started.

It is not difficult to see that Guardiola trusts and relies on Sudong.

And Su Dong has always used goals to repay the coach, Manchester City fans, and the management's trust in him.

After the opening, Su Dong made frequent threats, and in the fifteenth minute, Busquets scored the ball to the right, Douglas Costa dribbled the ball from the right rib into the penalty area, volleyed himself, and hit the ball. off the defender's lap and bounced out.

Su Dong deftly was near the penalty spot, grabbed the ball, hit a make-up shot, and opened the scoring for Manchester City, 1-0!

In the 29th minute, Manchester City took a tactical corner kick and passed it back to David Silva. After the reorganization, the Spanish midfielder saw the right opportunity and gave a through ball to the left side of the penalty area. Hazard picked it up. In front of the goal, David Luiz grabbed the spot and pushed a shot from three meters in front of the goal, which was saved by goalkeeper Sorensen.

What's so amazing is that the ball accidentally landed at Su Dong's feet again. He stopped, stabbed again, and the ball went in again!

After scoring the goal, Su Dong laughed and spread his hands.

I guess, Su Dong must be saying in his heart now, God, I don't want to score, why does the ball go to me?

Do you have to force me to score like this?

Can't I just be lazy and score less goals?

God, please, let this man go!

Ha ha!!!

Su Dong is indeed being lazy, but this is an instruction from the coaching staff, and Guardiola does not want Su Dong to be too invested and consumed.

After all, this Christmas schedule is too troublesome, the games are too dense, and there is no chance for people to breathe at all, especially they are prone to injuries.

Just seven minutes after Su Dong scored the second goal, Moutinho failed to break through with the ball from the front of the penalty area, but the opponent did not kick far, the ball fell to the feet of Douglas Costa, and the Brazilian winger made a direct kick. Volley, once again broke the goal of Stoke City, three to zero.

However, not long after the start of the second half, Zabaleta was injured in a fight with the opponent and was carried directly into the locker room by the team doctor. Guardiola was forced to replace him with Trippier.

This is also a major hidden danger of the Devil's schedule.

The game is too dense, the players are under too much pressure, and the probability of injury is skyrocketing.

With lingering fears, Guardiola immediately replaced Su Dong with Aguero, for fear of accidentally hurting Su Dong.

In just four minutes of playing, Gareth Barry made a steal in the frontcourt and then sent a wonderful pass. Aguero easily pushed and scored from seven meters in front of the goal, 4-0!

The Argentine striker once again staged a play on the bench!

In the end, Manchester City beat Stoke City with four goals at home.

...

Entering the intense Christmas Devil's schedule, the performance of each team is also mixed.

Manchester City continue to lead the winning streak, and the winning streak has reached 17 rounds.

But Manchester United's visit to London this time, 5-0 rout of Fulham.

Welbeck, Nani, Ryan Giggs, Rooney and Berbatov, five goals came from five players, which also made Ferguson very happy, saying that Manchester United is gradually recovering, and the attackers are also starting to find goals. a feeling of.

The ambitious Godfather of Manchester United has once again slammed his words to maintain a complete victory over Christmas and the winter break!

Compared with Arsenal's difficult 2-1 away victory over Aston Villa, Newcastle's 2-3 home loss to West Bromwich Albion, Liverpool's 0-0 draw away from Wigan Athletic, and Chelsea's 1-1 draw away from Toth Naum Hotspur, Manchester United's rout is indeed commendable.

Especially the performance of young goalkeeper Lindegaard left a deep impression on people, and there is a faint trend of replacing De Gea.

However, behind Manchester United's rout, the two teenagers Morrison and Pogba failed to get the chance to play, which also made them very dissatisfied. Morrison has made it clear that he wants to transfer, and Pogba has also passed the agent. External attitude.

The French genius will not renew his contract with Manchester United!
